The eagerly-awaited successor to the the popular N95 was at last unveiled in Barcelona this morning. Details of the N96 - the latest addition to Nokia's smartphone range - were leaked before the weekend, and they weren't far wrong.
The dual-slide handset sports a 2.8in display, 16GB of internal memory that can be further …

Re: How Novel...

"Doesn't really make it THAT novel a feature on the N78!"

Well, Nokia Location Tagger was only just released two weeks ago, and it is only for beta testing, so that's novel in my book. I expect the finished feature will be built into ROM and work a bit smoother by the time the N78 comes out.

n96

so its the 95 with more memory (+ a pointless tv standard that will be about as useful as 'visual radio')..... still I guess each generation of the ipod classic was nothing more than the last one with more memory.. I'll probably upgrade my N95 8gb just for the extra memory.

TV Licensing

Actually battery powered TVs are not exempt, they are just covered by your home TV licence. If you don't have a home TV licence, then (IMHO and IANAL) you will have to pay. Also (as I read it) if you watch TV on your phone at some other location *and* have it plugged into the charger, it's no longer "battery powered" and so would have to have a licence at that location (except there are exceptions for caravans and various other things)

To quote

"It makes no difference how you watch TV - whether it's on your laptop, PC or mobile phone or through a digital box, DVD recorder or TV set - if you use any device to receive television programmes as they're being shown on TV, the law requires you to be covered by a TV Licence."

The link is too long, but it's on the TV Licensing website under the FAQ "Do I need a TV Licence if I only watch programmes online?"
